I turned 39 weeks today and I am feeling very miserable and sad all the time; I feel very alone and feel like I have no one to talk to. I went to the doctor today and I am only 3 cm. along; besides going to my doctors appointment alone every week, im at home doing the same routine everyday. I wake up fix two waffles, two sausage, and two bacon, 1 prenatal pill, and a glass of milk. Then I take a long bath with a cup of ice water and listen to music; then I do my hair, get dressed, usually in one of the many floor summer dresses iv purchased earlier on in my pregnancy. I put on make up and usually watch TV for the day; I get up drive to the store to get little things I may need here and there but that's my day. I just wonder if I'm the only person feeling this way, I also feel like I am holding up my families lives because they feel like they cant go and leave the house because they dont believe I should be home alone. If they do leave they never stray far and are never gone for long, I feel like I'm coming in between the things that they need to do because I need someone to be here to drive me to the hospital. I just wish that she would come so we could meet each other and make each others lives the happiest while the world is still here.
I know what you're going though.. I lived with my mom during my entire pregnancy and for a couple weeks after my daughter was born. I also worked like a maniac during my entire pregnancy because i just simply don't know how to slow down. My day consisted of getting up and grabbing breakfast for the ride to work, educating people on photography and photo processing, coming home, making dinner, walking the dogs while dinner was on the stove, eating dinner, watching a bit of tv with my fiance, making lunch for the next day, then a shower and off to bed to start it all over again... Once i passed 37 weeks my mom didn't even want me to drive myself to work because she was afraid i would go into labor while driving (only 15 minutes down the road by the way). Eventually my boss kicked me out of the store because he was afraid he'd have to call the fire department to deliver my baby. While i was home I was going crazy because i suddenly had nothing to do and no one to talk to... so i hung out at work hahaha. My daughter was born 1 week after i left work and now i'm constantly busy, even at night. I still take care of everyone else, and still have no one to talk to until my fiance comes home from work.... That's where this site comes in handy. Everyone here is super supportive and understanding and it helps me feel less alone being able to read about and talk to other moms in my same position.... It does get better though, you just have to look for other people who you can relate to.. like a support group for example. Just give it time and if you're finding yourself feeling alone you can always come here.... I know i'll probably be here too.
Oh my God crystal, now Im worried for you, Congratulations... you are 39 weeks, you are almost done. Im sure your baby will come soon and will make your life easier and happier as you said. Dont be sad about the bad things of the life, remember that someone will always be there for you. We Strong moms are here for you too, you can share anything you want with us too, if you want, we are your friends and maybe you family too. You can find support on us, and remember, there is someone that need all the good mood in your heart, yor little baby, she already loves you so much.
Sing, smile, laugh and love... do it for her.
These last few weeks of pregnancy seem to drag on SO LONG. The waiting is almost unbearable!! You are not alone and are quite normal, in fact. I know it seems far away but in literally 2 weeks time you will be busy in a whole new way with your little one. What a blessing she will be! Your family, while it seems they are hovering, probably are just trying to show their concern and love by being there for you in case you go into labor. Don't worry about their schedule right now - just focus on making it through these last few weeks.
Is there anything you haven't done to get ready for baby girl? Perhaps you could find a mommy-baby support group and join them for after you have your little one. Perhaps you could write her some final letters telling her how much you love her and can't wait to see her. Put those in a special box for her where you can put keepsakes as she grows up. Got her room all set up? Hospital bag packed? Try taking some nice long walks to get your body into the swing of things for labor. Good luck and I'll be thinking of you!!
Yeah I read others stories and see that some of the people on here are in the same predicament as me and I don't feel like a needle in a hay stack anymore. I'm just so ready for her to come so I can start looking for work again so she can have everything that I want for her. I know what you mean about your mom not wanting you to drive, my big brother left me his car when he went away, its a old school caprice and it sits up really high on rims so my mom is paranoid about me driving it and being a girl. Its hard for me to get in and out of it now anyways because it sits so high =( I know things will get better for me, I just wonder how long do I have to be in one situation till something good comes out of it.
=) Thank You, I talk to her all the time, I love to read so when I read a book I usually read out loud now and I play relaxing music CD's I bought from Target. I feel a sense of calmness when I talk to her and she moves around like shes listening, I have been having contractions all day so maybe tonight will be the night she comes.
Yeah I have probably took my hospital bag in and out of the car about 4 or 5 times in the last 2 weeks to change the outfits that I put in and the outfit I want her to come home in. I have went over my hospital check list dozens of times so that's down, her nursery is perfect its just waiting for her to see it. I'm nervous about going into labor, but at the same time I'm so ready to start the process so it can be over with.
I know it sounds absolutely crazy but labor and delivery for me was a breez... I did have an epidural, however I am confident that i could have hung in there to the end if i really wanted to. I had a harder time with recovery than i did with labor an delivery... the nurses at my hospital made ice packs out of baby diapers (INGENIOUS life savers those things were) i don't know if that's standard or not... Anyway i must have gone through 2 dozen of those things... and a topical spray that has a numbing effect helped take the edge off as well. Either way it took a full day before i could get out of the hospital bed on my own, then another two days before i could move around the house little bits... I'd say it was a solid week and a half before i felt better, but a few weeks before i could move and sit with ease. So in your time before delivery it might be a wise idea to plan on how you're going to make your recovery easier. I think that you're entirely normal in wanting the baby to be born, it felt like an eternity at the end of my pregnancy. Just try to relax and enjoy the ride because very shortly you will no longer have "you" time.
Brinny -
It's not really standard practice but I LOVED the frozen diapers when I was recovering. Aren't they the best??? It's totally how I made it through. Aah - relief! :-)
I am sorry that you are having a rough time. I am so glad to see that you have gotten so many responses and support to your post. It sounds like others can relate to what you are going through. I have certainly been home for a weeks while recovering from being sick before, and although different from your situation, being alone and sick of the same routine-that is just the same. I tried to make it my goal to leave the house two times per day. Even if it was just a run to the store and back. That helped some. Having something little to look forward to everyday also helped me a lot. This could even just be getting the Sunday paper! I hope that you will continue to come here for support. We are all more than happy to help get rid of some of that feeling of isolation and offer you a cyber hug to boot.
Please take care and know that we care,
Oh, reading your posts made me remember how long and lonely those last few weeks feel. You are tired, big, hot, and ready to meet your new bundle of joy. Good news is that it is almost over! If you are 3cm then you are doing great and you could have your baby any day now really! Just try your best to get through the days until labor starts. Good luck and let us know when your baby arrives!
Any progress?? Hoping maybe you've had your little one by now! :-)
Yes shes here! Shes so beautiful! She was born early on May 24,2012 at 12:02 in the morning =) I had her all natural, she came so fast, I got to the hospital at 11:45 so I didnt really have time for anything. Now that I have her home I feel so much better I read to her, and talk to her. Although she was born early, she is healthy and very alter. She was 6 pounds and 4 ounces I named her "Crystal Aubree Peters" after me, and I gave her, her fathers last name =)
YAY congrats! was going natural your plan? I'm glad everything went ok... Isn't holding your baby for the first time AMAZING! I was gypped on having and seeing my little girl on my belly after i delivered. she had meconium in her water and started screaming on the way out so they rushed her to the cleaning station to give her a good suctioning before i could see her.... So happy for you! enjoy every second, even the screaming ones because before you know it she is going to be 3 months old and trying to roll over and you're not going to know where the time went.
Going Natural was my plan because I am absolutely terrified of needles and when I found out that an epidural was when they put the needle in your spine! was very scared and hoped I didnt have to do that. When she came out my mom cut the cord and they wrapped her up and gave her to me, I go so emotional its the best feeling I have had; I just couldnt believe it I was in shock lol. It really is a Joy =) <3

Matt Capps' Fastball Velocity Drops
After an underwhelming 2011, Matt Capps is now one of the more interesting options out there for teams looking to fill the closer role. Last year, Capps saw his strikeout per nine rate drop to 4.7, the lowest in his career. He also gave up 1.4 home runs per nine, the highest since his 1.7 in 2009 with the Pittsburgh Pirates.
One reason for his troubles last season could be a slight decrease in his velocity. Capps lost one mph on his fastball in 2011 compared to 2010, dropping to an average of 92.8 mph. As a result, he produced an 11.8% miss rate on his fastball, compared to 17.5% in 2010 and 15.1% in 2009.
To make matters worse, Capps' fastball BABIP actually dropped to .258, 32 points lower than his previous 3 year average while his line drive rate on fastballs also dropped a full 10%. While this may seem like a positive, his HR/FB jumped from 6.1% in 2010 to 9.3%. And considering he was giving up 14% more fastball induced fly balls in 2011, his long ball troubles far outweighed any positives from a decrease in hits on balls in play.
Early CAIRO projections peg Capps at about a .6 WAR. The word is the Twins would like to bring Capps back. He'll probably be looking for something more than a 1 year deal, however. Given his velocity troubles last year, it might be a bit risky to invest in Capps with a long term deal, especially for a small market team like the Twins.

The Administration and its collaborators are in the process of smearing the Media. They have already equated "media" with "liberal', which they have already smeared as "unpatriotic". Actually, one need not be a Democrat, a liberal, or a member of the media to be anti-Bush, which is hardly the same as "unpatriotic".
If the war in Iraq takes a positive turn before October, the Administration can trumpet a "cautious success" (as opposed to "mission acomplished). If it does not, the blame can be placed on the Dem, lib, media coalition whose "non support for the troops" (hardly a truth) has undermined the effort in Iraq. If enough voters buy it IN SPITE of low Bush and Congress poll numbers, there will be little change in November.
Frankly, I think everyone who voted for the Iraq war should be voted out of office. I'm placing my vote against Lieberman as soon as I get the chance, even though he is one of the most otherwise decent men in Congress.

Dennis Cove resident thankful for paving and striping of road9:39 am | November 21, 2012
To the editor:
I have written several letters in the past complaining about the condition of Dennis Cove Road. Well, this one is different. This letter is to say thank you.
First, I would like to thank, although a thank you isn't quite sufficient, Mayor Leon Humphrey for all of the hard work and effort he put into obtaining the grant that was put toward the paving and striping of Dennis Cove Road. He did not have to put forth that extra work/effort for the citizens of that area just because a few had come to him and complained, but he cared enough to actually go drive the area and see for himself what condition the road was in. He also ensured that the paving was done within this year and not put on the back burner since the funds were available. Thank you, Mayor Humphrey.
Second, I would like to thank the U.S. Forestry Service for the monies they put toward the paving of the road. Without them and the grant, the road would not have gotten paved anytime soon. The Forestry Service could have used the monies spent on the road in other areas, but chose to apply it toward the paving.
Last, but not least, I would like to thank the Carter County Highway Department for the work they did in the paving and striping of Dennis Cove Road. That road is a narrow, curvy road and I know it could not be an easy task to complete and keep the traffic flowing, but you did. And you did a good job of it. Thank you for paving and especially striping the road. The striping really helps on foggy mornings/nights and it also helps the out-of-town visitors who do not know the area when visiting the Appalachian Trail. Good job to all of you that worked on it — there were too many to name everyone.
Jean Rhea, Hampton

Hi I am a new member here, I just got an iphone 3gs, new bootrom, firmwire 4.1, baseband version 05.14.02, my pc is using windows 7 (32bit). I need to unlock the phone to use it as there are no official local careers here (Bangladesh).
I have seen several threads/guides/videos to jailbreak using redsnow 0.9.6b5 and unlock with ultrasnow and most of them has stated to upgrade to ios 4.2.1, but as it will be tethered and involves complicated restoring process with custom firmwire, I want to stay unlocked at 4.1 os. is it possible? or upgrading to 4.2.1 is a must for jailbreaking/unlocking with redsnow/ultrasnow (macs are also rare here so using pwnage tool will be difficult)
If i do try to jailbreak/unlock it now with redsnow/ultrasnow (remaining in ios 4.1) and something goes wrong will it be damaged permanently or i can restore it to stock ios 4.1 and try the process again? (i have read the thread regarding restoring and seen that firmwire 4.2.1 and onward wil be unable to restore to original stock firmwire, but as i will be using ios 4.1 it is possible to restore to stock 4.1 firmwire even with baseband upgrade to 06.15.00, just need to be sure ). i have got shsh of only 4.2.1 saved and tinyumbrela says others are not available as it is too late so downgrading from 4.2.1 will not be an option either.
sorry for bugging so much with all the questions, the thing is as iphones are rare here i had to pay almost 650$ to get just a 3gs (i know it was stupid on my part as i could have gotten an iphone 4 for that price if i had bought it from the US) and I want to be sure. without jailbreak and unlock its just an extremely expensive ipod for me...any help will be apriciated, thx...

|Q&A With DI-A Commissioner Kevin Battle
|Colleges - Men's DI College
We've brought DI-A commissioner Kevin Battle in for a discussion on DI-A and the current state of college rugby. This is a true Q&A session, where we ask the questions and run Battle's responses unedited. Before the discussion gets going, let's set the table.
College 15s is broken up into four divisions: DI-A, DI-AA, DII and NSCRO. The top three layers are governed by USA Rugby, while NSCRO is an independent competition. There's another independent competition, the Varsity Cup, which consists of Cal, BYU, Utah, Air Force, Dartmouth, Notre Dame and Navy. All of those teams are former DI-A teams, and all but Air Force are current DI-AA teams.
In addition to commissioning DI-A, Battle serves on the College Competitions Committee, coaches DI-AA Santa Barbara City College and runs the Santa Barbara Rugby Academy. Battle coached UCSB for 12 years, stepping down from that role earlier this month.
RM: Kevin, the hottest topic of conversation in college rugby the last several months has been that Cal, BYU and other really, really good teams aren't competing in DI-A, which is designed by USA Rugby to be the crown jewel of college rugby. We've heard, be it in print or on the Ruggamatrix podcast, from Cal's Jack Clark and BYU's David Smyth on this issue, so we know their reasons for leaving DI-A. From your perspective, why are the best teams in college rugby split across two divisions and three "championships"?
KB: It's no secret that a lot of folks have been disappointed in the way the college game has been administered at the national level. The DI-A competition was created in part to address some of those very issues and let college folks manage the college game. While progress has been made, there still is quite a ways to go. It is unfortunate that some high profile and high quality teams have sought to go their own separate route, instead of working together to help make DI-A become what it is supposed to be, the crown jewel of college rugby in the US.
RM: During the summer, there was an ongoing discussion between DI-A decision makers and the Varsity Cup teams. At some point, it was decided the VC and DI-A were going to have conflicting playoff dates and it would not be doable for VC teams to also compete in the DI-A postseason. Some VC teams expressed interest in playing in the DI-A regular season but not the postseason. This became a sticking point in the discussion, and it was eventually decided that any team competing in the DI-A regular season would have to be available for its postseason. Do I have that correct?
KB: That is correct. The DI-A member schools worked very hard to try and have the DI-A postseason and VC competition work together. The DI-A representatives offered to move playoff dates to accommodate the existence of both competitions. Those efforts were rejected by the VC teams. The DI-A competition makes significant investment in the regular and postseason competition. From video exchange, high quality referees, to travel assistance. We ask that all participating teams remain in good standing, which includes full participation in all scheduled matches, regular and postseason. The VC teams declared they were not willing to do so.
RM: Can you expand on the reasoning behind not letting teams participate in the regular season if they weren't committed to playing in the postseason?
KB: Since most college programs are funded largely through student-athlete dues, it would be unfair for us to "force" teams to play matches (and incur the expense) that have no bearing on their league standing or they deem irrelevant. We encourage teams to play as many games as possible, both cross-divisional and across leagues, including the VC teams. We leave it up to each program to determine what non-league match-ups they feel will bring value to their program and team development. I suspect you will see many DI-A vs. VC match-ups such as Ohio State vs. Notre Dame, Stanford vs. Cal and Army vs. Navy. We encourage this as it is good for rugby.
RM: I know through previous conversations that you look at DI-A as a long-term competition. You said you wouldn't have taken the job as commissioner if you didn't think it had a future. How important is it for the future of the division to get the marquee brand names and quality rugby of the Varsity Cup teams involved again? Is that something you're actively working towards?
KB: We are actively trying to get the best teams and the biggest names in college rugby to compete in the top collegiate rugby competition. We need the likes of Cal, BYU, UCLA, Michigan, Wisconsin, Florida, Texas and other "big name schools." We also need the Arkansas States and Delawares of the world. We need a Big Ten conference that can rival the Pac 12 conference. In order to accomplish this, we need to invest. We need to strategically invest our resources to help develop teams, conferences and regions to improve their performance and grow our game. This will not happen overnight. We can no longer sit idle and hope teams develop. Hope is not a strategy.
KB: We are in the process of revamping our marketing and sponsorship efforts and have made significant headway. Teams will share in the resources, both in product and in financial support. Production of a best practices manual (organizational and technical) has begun. Collaboration amongst peers of successful practices, both in the board room and on the pitch. Aligning teams in traditional conferences where available will help to bring more visibility and legitimacy to our sport. Keeping competition more local and regionalized, in an effort to develop more fan support and minimize costs. Sending specialized coaches to strategic regions to assist with coaching and player development. These are many of the improvements that are being developed and are sorely needed.
RM: The membership of DI-A, many would argue, has been diluted, in terms of quality on the field - not only because of the loss of teams like those competing in the Varsity Cup, but because of the inclusion of teams that are coming straight from DII, like Michigan, or a weaker DI-AA competition, like Sam Houston State. It appeared DI-A was fighting for survival this summer and was adding numbers out of desperation. What do you see the process being going forward? How do you balance keeping DI-A large enough to work without having an open admissions policy?
KB: There exists no "open admissions policy" in DI-A rugby. Each team and conference offers value to our competition. The decision to admit some teams who might not be as competitive 'today' to the D1A competition is part of a broader strategy. We needed to regionalize competition to minimize costs and develop or take advantage of local rivalries. We need to include conferences and schools who bring with them brand recognition and relevance such as the Big 10. We will in-turn work to help these programs develop and grow to reach their full potential. This is no different than finding that stud athlete walking around campus. He might not be a great rugby player today, but with coaching, guidance and support, how good can he be in three years? We must take on this challenge.
RM: Is there a cap on teams? Can DI-A continue to frow? Is it even the plan for DI-A to grow? The larger DI-A gets, the more teams might wish to be in a playoff scenario, but we're hindered by timing. How do we avoid DI-A becoming DI again with lots of two-game weekends and everyone in a playoff, without also excluding teams?
KB: There currently exists no cap on the DI-A competition. We have identified teams, conferences, and regions that we would like to expand to. We also do not want to limit opportunities for those teams to earn their way in through promotion by maintaining a standard of excellence both on and off the pitch. We have plans to expand to a round of 16, and have looked at the possibility of additional play-in rounds if necessary. The two-game weekend creates a greater health risk for our student-athletes and diminishes the quality of our product. Returning to that scenario is not an option.
RM: OK, almost time to let you off the hook. But before we do, what can we look for this season in DI-A? Will there be any changes to the postseason, broadcast or webcast plans, or anything we might notice on the pitch? Are we still looking at bundling DI-A, DI-AA and DII college championships at the same venue and weekend and getting it on TV? Does the venue get changed with BYU out of the picture?
KB: We are currently hard at work now planning for the 2013 postseason. We are working on both broadcast and webcast plans. TV is a must. DI-A will not be bundled together with other college championships. Certainly the absence of both BYU and Utah make Rio Tinto a less attractive venue for us this season. We hope to change that in the near future. Plans will be released to RM as soon as the ink dries!

Animal Protection Groups Ask Federal Court to Halt Ringling Bros.' Cruel Chaining and Confinement of Endangered Asian Elephants
Washington, D.C. -- Today, a coalition of animal protection organizations and a former Ringling Bros. employee asked a federal district court in Washington D.C. to immediately order a halt to Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus (Ringling Bros.)'s cruel practice of shackling and confining endangered Asian elephants for days on end in a manner that prevents them from walking or even turning around in place.
Newly obtained evidence based on the circus's own documents reveals that Ringling Bros. keeps elephants virtually immobilized in chains for the majority of their lives. Internal records of the circus's train travels show that the elephants are chained while confined in boxcars for an average of more than 26 hours at a time, and sometimes for as much as 60 100 hours without a break as the circus moves across the country.
"The evidence is simply shocking," says Lisa Weisberg, Senior Vice President of Government Affairs and Public Policy of the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA). "The public should be outraged at the amount of time these animals are forced to be shackled and confined, and Ringling Bros. should be ashamed at hiding this cruelty from the public eye."
"We hope that the Court will order Ringling Bros. to immediately unchain these incredibly intelligent and, social animals and spare them from suffering a lifetime of misery," says Tracy Silverman, General Counsel for Animal Welfare Institute. "No animal should be chained for days at a time, week after week, month after month and year after year."
The request for an immediate halt to prolonged chaining and confinement of elephants is part of a groundbreaking lawsuit by the ASPCA, the Animal Welfare Institute, The Fund for Animals, Born Free USA united with Animal Protection Institute (Born Free USA), and former Ringling Bros. employee Tom Rider against Ringling Bros. Circus. The suit alleges that the circus is violating the Endangered Species Act by abusively training and disciplining elephants with sharp implements such as bullhooks, and by intensively confining and chaining the animals for prolonged periods of time.
"Shackling elephants for days on end without the ability to walk or even turn around is inherently cruel," said Michael Markarian, President of The Fund for Animals. "Endangered species deserve something better than a lifetime of suffering."
Although Ringling Bros. has denied that the elephants spend most of their lives in chains, former circus employees and other witnesses have given sworn testimony to the U.S. Department of Agriculture that the elephants are kept tightly chained by one front and hind leg — unable to move freely or even turn around — for hours on end.
"The overwhelming evidence we have obtained confirms what former Ringling Bros. employees have said for years about the unimaginable cruelty that goes on under — and behind — the Big Top," says Nicole G. Paquette, Senior Vice President for Born Free USA. "These new revelations of prolonged chaining of elephants should not only have significant implications for this case, but also assist in our national efforts to pass legislation prohibiting cruel training practices commonly used on captive elephants."
The plaintiffs are represented by the public interest law firm Meyer Glitzenstein & Crystal.

This is a bad game. A very bad game. This game didn't need a manual – it needed an apology. The world can breathe easier knowing it's out of print.
The focus of this "game" (and I use the term loosely) is the military career of Frederick the Great, in particular the years 1745-1760. These were good years for the Prussian war machine. At the start of Frederick's reign Prussia was a small country amongst many other small countries in a loose conglomeration of Germanic states. Austria was the single largest entity and looked to be the most likely candidate to form the nucleus of a unified German state. When Frederick was done he has carved out a significant role for Prussia in the formation of the German state (eventually capped off with Bismark).
These wars are the coming-out party for the Prussian war machine. It's hard to say enough good things about the Prussian organizational methods, especially the officer corps. They were educated, effective, disciplined, inventive, loyal, and professional. They fought Napoleon, helped unify Germany, fought WW1 and WW2, and produced Clausewitz.
One might think a game about their early days might be interesting. And it would be, if it weren't this game.
The problems started at install. Hmmm, I thought, the graphics are a little fuzzy. Maybe it's not running at the monitor's native resolution (this can be a problem on flat panels). So I went to change the game's resolution and what do you know? I can't. I didn't know you could even buy a game with only one resolution any more.
Ok, this is one guy in a garage. But the graphics themselves are awful. Why do the individual soldiers look like disjointed jumbles of circles and rectangles with crummy faces and lousy facial hair? The terrain itself is functional, if nothing to write home about.
We can let that slide if there's a decent engine underneath. The manual describes a system that looks to be well suited for a turn-based strategy game of this era. Each turn has a series of phases (bombardment, command, activation, action, fire, defensive fire, assault, withdrawal). The basic idea is that the acting primary commander has a certain number of command points. He can give these command points to subordinates or keep them himself. Each leader can then use their command point(s) to attempt to have a subordinate unit perform an action (each unit has various reasons why it might not perform an action – morale is important). After these determinations have been made each unit will perform its action in the appropriate phase.
The actual mechanics are more complicated than the brief description above. This is definitely and engine that has been worked on a lot. The big problem is the user interface. The user interface provides absolutely no clue as to what to do, what's going on, and what just happened. It is as if the developer did not want you to play the game. It was difficult to figure out what phase/sub-phase was happening. I couldn't figure out how to undo a move. The scale was such as to obviate most maneuvering. You could move units either separately or as a group, but it was never clear how to do either or what would happen on a particular move.
Overall, this is a bad game. The underlying engine might be ok, but it's impossible to tell under an opaque user interface and primitive graphics.

Boo Yaa Babes! How are ya today? Sorry to say - no shake concoction to share with you just yet. I am starving waiting for my fish to cook so I thought I would chat a bit.
I think my tumor is shrinking. (hee, wink to Shell) Seriously, my tummy feels much tighter and actually stays in after a meal. Shocking for the queen of bloat. Baby steps, baby steps. I keep reading the pdf for inspiration not to give up. I realize consistency over time is the key. Period.
Just to pontificate for a moment. I have known for many years how to eat really well and exercise (thanks to Tony Horton and Cathe Friedrich). The kicker has been attempting to go it alone without anyone to bounce ideas off of or get support and encouragement from. That is where you all come in... you have MADE this journey for me. I know I will make it to the finish line because of you ladies. I don't want to fail you, so I won't.
Ding... there goes my buzzer. Garlic and tomato Mahi, quinoa and zucchini coming up!
i didn't check in yesterday. oopsie. oh, i know why. i was ornery and i didn't get to the gym. well, that was stupid. i think i've missed at least one workout every week since i started. i have doubled up a few times, but i'm sure it's not as beneficial as a daily heart pump.
i went today and did the evil stair mill.
you girls are doing SO good!! i'm super duper proud of you! i agree with Snow. i'm in this for the 12 weeks. i love checking in, or at least seeing that you're checking in :) and i'm in this for the long haul. if any of you wanted to swing by my house one morning and go to the gym with me that would be really nice though!
the meals are nice to read too, 'cause it keeps my menu changing and i'm not getting bored.
big hugs to my ladies!
Bumping us to the top! Where is everyone?? I'm talking to myself here. ;o)
There you are Heather... we must have posted at the same time.
Most exciting part of my day... getting my car detailed inside and out. Now that is Boo Yaa worthy!
My recovery week is going well... one leg work out, a bike ride, yoga sessions and a seriously hard hike coming up on Saturday and I should be ready to hit it again on Monday. I have ordered from my alternative medicine practitioner a natural supplement that aides in workout recovery. He said it is noticeable - so I am anxious to start using it next week. I'll let you know what I think.
Watching the calories this week, so far so good. I am old hat at it so it isn't a big deal for me. Didn't eat enough yesterday morning so by the time I hit Costco at 5pm I was ready to mow through every sample station there. I grazed a bit... then I came home and ate two ginormous apples with PB for dinner. Just something about the juicy wonderfulness. Is that bad? Probably, oh well. Today is a new day...
Have a super day my super ladies!
Snow I am noticing you have a STELLAR attitude this week. It's refreshing and I love it. :)
I'm still here, eating well, getting workouts in. Not much else to report. I had to fall back a weeks worth of progress and I am feeling it in my muscles but I like it! Been busy getting my kids signed up for activities and we started school last week. Now I'm trying to break the electronic habit and it has been hard. I think I hear "can I play xyz?" 50 times per minute lol. My fault for being lax about it over the summer. I knew that was a bad idea and shouldn't set the precedent but did it anyway due to my own laziness and subsequent BFL obsession. Heh.
See you ladies later!
have any of you ladies undergone testing (either by a doctor, or your own process of elimination) for food intolerances/sensitivities? i've been dealing with stomach aches pretty severely the last week, and i'm starting to wonder if food is the culprit. i don't know how to set out to solve this on my own. if i keep my diet the same, but i eliminate eggs, how long do i need to do that for? i'm sure some of my struggles this week are related to the fact that i feel icky. i've never noticed sensitivity to certain foods before, except eggs. whole eggs kick my guts. egg whites don't seem to bother me. but sensitivities can be developed later on, right? what if i've suddenly become lactose intolerant. how would i survive without cottage cheese, yogurt, and whey protein? how?
could it just be working out? i usually get a stomach ache after i work out.
if anyone has any advice, i'd welcome it.
I'm back... clearly I don't have enough to do today! Just waiting to pick up my car from the salon!! ;o)
SouthernB: thank you for the props. I am so glad I can be refreshing rather than kick baby chicks crazy as I have been in the past. ;o)
Heather: You are speaking my favorite language now! This is SO my journey as I have lived and breathed food elimination, candida, digestive difficulty for the past three years. I have worked with an alternative practitioner to get some balance back into my system.
Here are some thoughts: Since you know whole eggs may be a problem, eliminate them. Also, other culprits are gluten, corn, dairy, sugar and processed foods of any kind. If you have eaten or currently have a lot of sugar and processed carbs in your diet you may have an overgrowth of Candida in your gut. It causes bloating, gas, distention, a feeling of being overly full after a modest meal. Do a google search and see if it makes sense for you.
I would also recommend starting on a digestive enzyme at every meal. As we get older we produce fewer enzymes to digest our food - causes all sorts of problems in the gut. In fact I recently ran out for several days and was miserable after every meal with nausea. I have picked up the Udo's Choice brand recently and it works well when I can't get them from my practitioner fast enough.
Do you take a probiotic? Another important step in adding the good bacteria to the gut to crowd out the bad.
Try simple things like chicken, fish, sweet potatoes, soaked oats, quinoa, easy to digest veggies (non-cruciferous) for starters. Look at your protein powder too, these can cause all sorts of digestion issues. Jay Robb and Dr. Mercola work well for my sensitive system.
I could go on forever as I am quite passionate about this topic, our guts are our second brain. When they aren't happy, we aren't happy. Disclaimer: I am not a physician :>)... just a heavy researcher with lots of personal experience and lots of money spent on alternative practitioners who helped me and educated me along the way.
So, to break all that down.... start by eliminating the Big 5 food culprits for a couple of weeks. Then you can add one back in at a time and see how you react. Add the digestive enzymes and probiotics. Kick the sugar out the door, it does nothing but harm.
Sidenote: lest you think I am sitting here on my high horse dolling out advice with my nose in the air - not the case. I still work with this everyday of my life. My hope is that my suffering can help shortcut someone else's journey for their answers.
On a simpler note... perhaps with the overall diet clean-up that happens with this program you may experience some backlash when you eat something not so clean - like on a free day. The cleaner our systems get, the less room for error we have.
OK, wrapping up now. Whew... what a dissertation!
well, HOLY CRAP SNOW! thanks!! that's a wealth of information and i've never even dipped my toes in the water to figure this out. thank you for your time and research and trial and error. i love it! you are fabulous!
Gosh, gone for one day and Wham! Rhee are a thousand messages to read through. Ok a thousand is probably a severe exaggeration, but dang!!!!! Lol
Heather. I experience the same things once in a while. A difeative enzyme at each meal for me does the trick for wheat, eggs and dairy. You may wish to try that before altering anything. Go to vitalist.com - I use Source Naturals, essential enzymes!
I have been doing good.. Busy, but the food and exercise feel normal now. I dont think about it too much anymore which makes me feel like a "normal" person!!!
I have a funny story about a mango. I don't want to get kicked off, so I will type it in a bit !!!!
Good job ladies! Keep up the good work!
Sorry guys,
I haven't posted in a bit! Still working out & following plan. Did my LBWO this morning! I am going to be out of town for the weekend...still planning my meals & workouts. I will most likely have to watch my proportions and take some bars & shakes. I did have a little hiccup yesterday....stress & boss picked my lunch spot. Pizza - I did have cheese pizza & salad. New goal for next week is to get up every morning to workout - I have been successful at 4 of the 5 weekdays. Come on energy and see if I can get over this hump. I do a TRX class on Tuesday evenings and I am usually exhausted by Wed. evening & skip my early morning workout.
Have a good weekend too! Hey, anybody have some good healthy fish recipes?! I can't remember is who it is?
haha! Just saw a commercial for Ensure (which I believe the targeted audience is typically the elderly) and they were announcing that it now contains HMB - the amino acid commonly known as Revigor. Hmmmm....where else have we seen this?? (Shell!) Oh yes - in Betagen LOL
Got a good kick out of that :)
Hi guys, havent checked in for a couple of days....I am having severe "Migraines" (for lack of a better term) I have a medical condiiton that produces horrific headaches...but they have been in check lately....this has been sort of unbearable. Right now I feel all out of whack. Today, i didnt work out and it was my free day (changed from Sundays). I slept almost all day and I feel a bit better, made a good Persian dinner, Lamb kabob's with sour Cherry rice and roasted tomatoes. It's my FAVORITE meal....gave the leftovers to my daughter so it wont be in my house !!
My total weight loss is now 9 lbs and I am thirlled.....I will measure inches again at 8 weeks.
Funny mango Story:
Side note: My kitchen is sort of open to my family room. If I stand at my sink I am facing the family room so that if anyone walks in, they can see into the kitchen and certainly see who is at the sink.
SOOO, the other day I had just cut a mango with my mango cutting tool (if you dont have one you need to get one). When the mango is peeled and cut, there are two halves and the cetner seed. But there is still fruit attached to the seed. (I am STILL Having mango cravings) A mango see is about 3 inches by 2 inches. Fairly long and flat. I am standing at my sink, trying to get all the fruit off the seed. YES, I had the seed practically shoved all the way in my mouth when I open my eyes and looked up, there was my husband who had just walked in from work (I didnt hear him and had no idea he was there). He was watching me eat this mango off the seed....embarrassed...I take the seed out of my mouth and throw it out.. Of course he had some VERY interestng things to say about it....and we have been laughing about it ever since. He says "that was the sexiest thing Iven seen in a long time" - UMMM wow...I am not sure how to feel about it.....LOL
I cant help it. I AM STILL having a love affair with the Mango this week....
OK...hope your Sunday is good ladies!
WOW - quiet this weekend. Hope everyone is having a blast.
WEEK 6 Ladies!! Let kick some A$$.....BOOOO YAAAAA!!
I am usually too busy to post on the weekends...UBWO done and goal is to do all my workouts at 5am this week! Thursday morning is usually my toughest one. Wish me luck! Keep it strong ladies!
*aaakk*! i was reading the last couple posts as i was mixing protein powder into my oatmeal. without looking i took a bite and the moisture had sealed a giant protein powder pod onto the spoon. i just got a mouth full of powder! YUUUUUK!
i had a great weekend! i came into the office for a couple hours early saturday, but that was enough to relive the stress building over this project i'm working on. then i stopped by the garden center and loaded up on all things bulky and heavy and spent a few hours working on resuscitating my front lawn. (i have the landscapers working on the back yard). So i weeded and tilled that sucker with a rake. and did it all again sunday. i counted that as my cardio over the weekend. it wasn't HIIT, just HI. and it looks like hell still, but i feel better about it. they should have a raking machine at the gym.
Shells, I LOOOOVE mango! ever since i discovered it some years back. but i hate HATE trying to get the fruit off the seed and dealing with the peel. i've seen those little cutting tools. i just didn't know if they actually worked. good to know! i'm going to run out and buy one. oh to be a fly on the wall in your house! i love it.
and snow - i bought some probiotics at whole foods. i just started taking it last night. i didn't have too many troubles over the weekend, which is suprising because my free "DAY" seemed to creep into a couple other meals here and there.
which brings me to my next point - i can't complain about not seeing results if i'm not working this program 100%! i need to refocus and clean it up so i can complain :)
got upper body done this morning.
love you girls! i hope you're all still with us!

Published: July 24, 2012
In the coming weeks, delegates from the Republican and Democratic parties will gather at highly choreographed events to formally anoint their respective presidential nominees. But the decisions that these conventioneers make will for the most part have been cemented long before.
But American political conventions haven't always been so uneventful. The conventions that led to American independence and our Constitution were anything but predetermined. In the 19th century, dark horse candidates emerged out of smoke-filled rooms to take the reins of their political parties, while disenfranchised groups in American society, such as women and African Americans, held their own conventions to debate the radical measures that they would take to achieve equality. New Englanders in 1814 and Southerners in 1860 met in conventions to determine whether they would secede from the Union. Even in the 20th century, struggles over who would have a voice in the Democratic conventions of 1964 and 1968 showed that conventions could still be pretty surprising.
In this episode of BackStory, the American History Guys will explore some of the reasons American political conventions lost their punch. Considering the radical nature of conventions in the past, why does "conventional" connote "blasé" today? Please help us to shape this episode—post your unconventional comments, questions, and ideas below!

"It has worked well for us," Fire Marshal Bob King said.
Though the fire department is required to conduct onsite inspections for certain businesses because of permitting stipulations, low-risk businesses can do a self-inspection.
"Not every business needs to be inspected every year" by fire department personnel, King said. But it is critical that every business remain compliant, he added.
Business fires account for 25 percent of all fire deaths and 34 percent of all fire injuries, according to a fire department press release. In addition, the leading three causes of business fires are faulty equipment or wiring, unsafe practices and arson.
Guidelines and a checklist have been sent to those businesses conducting self-inspections. Among the things on the to-do-list is ensuring that all exits are clear and free of obstruction; checking service tags on fire extinguishers to make sure they are up to date; and testing emergency lighting and exit lights.
The self-inspection form asks business owners to update their personal contact information so that they can be reached in the event of an emergency. And this information, along with details of the inspection, is passed along to emergency response personnel and also the city's dispatch center so that they can be prepared when and if a fire occurs.
The self-inspection forms were sent to local, qualifying businesses in early November and fire officials ask that they be completed and returned within 30 days. Failure to comply will result in an onsite inspection for which a fee will be levied. Costs can vary based on the size of the business and its occupancy rate, but an inspection of a 30,000-square-foot business would likely cost about $60, King said.
King also said businesses could request that the fire department conduct the inspection, if they prefer, and that fire safety and prevention educational classes for employees are available at no cost.
King said the fire safety self-inspection is not commonplace around the country, but that some municipalities, including Reno, are considering it.

Hi, Anthony.
Thanks for suggesting that and providing a patch.
Hi, Tim.
I was wondering if you would like to peer review this patch as you have done related work recently. There's no problem if you don't want to, but I thought I would offer it to you first.
Michael d;
Yes, I'll take a look later today.
By the way, this is actually a duplicate of something I started work on a while ago, and never finished:
MDL-30204. There is also MDL-10505. Anyway, if Anthony has finally fixed this, it is great. I will make sure there is only one open bug left at the end of today.
(Also, Michael, in case you don't know, Anthony's desk at the OU is about 5 metres away from mine )
Tim's and my solutions seem very similar bar I didn't touch the pear lib and, consequently, I am not sure whether Tim's avoids multiple elements with the same id.
Review comments:
1. The code is currently 3 separate commits with bad commit comments. It needs to be rebased down to one commit with a nice comment. (e.g. "
MDL-31445 formslib: add a nice id to the wrapper div to help with css"
2. Apart from that, Anthony's patch is mostly better. Actually, it is remarkable how similar the two patches are!
3. And one think that is nicer in my patch is that I also add the item type as a class name on the outer div, which can also be helpful for CSS, so I will amend Anthony's commit to deal with 1. and add that bit.
Re. point 1, what should I have done in git to clean this up?
The magic command is git rebase. Particularly git rebase -i.
Pro git does not seem to cover it (http://progit.org/book/ch3-6.html) but the "INTERACTIVE MODE" of the man page http://schacon.github.com/git/git-rebase.html describes it pretty well.
Anthony, does this amended version look OK? https://github.com/timhunt/moodle/compare/master...MDL-31445
Ah, this does not work, becuase names can contain characters that are illegal in ids. (For example []). We need to add some clean-up.
Using $element->getAttribute('id') appears to work.
OK, I have changed it to use the element id, so now a the outer div for a typical field looks like:
<div id="fitem_id_timeclose" class="fitem fitem_fdate_time_selector">
Is that OK. I don't think it is great.
By the way, I just found
MDL-31469 while testing this.
Yes - that's what I was half way through suggesting. Looks good.
The main moodle.git repository has just been updated with latest weekly modifications. You may wish to rebase your PULL branches to simplify history and avoid any possible merge conflicts. This would also make integrator's life easier next week.
TIA and ciao
Thanks for the nice (team)work here, thats been integrated into master , 22, 21 and is ready for marvelous testing.
I tested this in version 2.1, 2.2 and master. I did indeed marvel at the beauty of the class ids and attribute names. They look very nice.
I also ran a validation check on the HTML. Some errors came up mainly in 2.2 and 2.1 about not having a document type declaration, but there were no errors regarding ids and attribute names.
Test passed.
A bit later this week, but finally your changes have been accepted and are now available in all the upstream git/cvs servers.
Many thanks & ciao

Hoa with participants of the summer 2010 Alice Notley Grave of Light class.
This is poetics workshop and a lab for writing.
Workshop forming: Reading and Writing through Ted Berrigan's Sonnets
May 11 through July 20, 2014
We meet every Sunday and begin by reading the selected text aloud for the first hour. We literally give it breath; we breathe it and feel it in our bodies, release it into the air and let it circulate, come back into our ears and our skin and additional sites of reception. We each read two pages. I provide some context to the poems and will occasionally define or locate a reference, but do not otherwise explicate the work.
In the second hour we write. I draw us back to the text then, pointing out various writing strategies and also bring other strategies to bear on the upcoming writing, with the goal of entering a liminal space where we can write, write with an unstructured, inviting mind.
Writing sessions are formalized into poems—participants gather works into mini-manuscripts for review and commentary in the final class or, in the case of virtual students, in one-on-one consultations with me.
All students may keep abreast of the material via weekly email summaries; these provide continuity and content regardless of whether attendance is possible to all meetings.
Both in-person and virtual students have found that the workshop's weekly engagement has generated poems, lead to revision of older work, given new understanding to poetics, and triggered the reworking of dusty manuscripts.
Attendance is on-location in my home near Chester Station in Toronto or in cyberspace (in the form of a weekly write up, podcast, and optional video phone).
Write to me at firstname.lastname@example.com for more information.

The Night Rider
Last week's clock rewind is yet another dead giveaway that winter approaches. And it's turned many bike commuters into night riders
The basic trick to night riding is to see and be seen. Even on well-lit streets, darkness not only makes it more difficult to see, but also judge distances and direction, which means slower reaction times – for both drivers and riders.
Got Your Back?
In addition to the lights needed by law, a few simple additions to your bike will help drivers travelling in your direction spot and react to you a mile away:
• Standard reflector – Many fenderless bikes don't have rear reflectors, but try attaching one to your seat or bike frame.
• Reflective Tape – Good old Canadian Tire or your local bike shop will have reflective tape for your bike and helmet
• Reflective Strips – On clothing, panniers, helmets – anything. When buying any bike accessory that might be seen on the road, try to find one with reflective strips.
• Armband – Armbands, visible from the back and front, help make your hand signals more visible
• Safety Vest – Too cumbersome for many, the ultimate in nighttime visibility for others
Be Seen All around
Try to improve your visibility from all angles to help motorists approaching from the opposite direction or from other streets. Bright clothing is a good start.
From the Front
Sometimes your headlight is all an oncoming drivers can see of you – and you're competing with the headlights on the cars travelling in your direction. Be seen and let 'em know you're coming down the road:
• White front reflector – If you don't have one, they're usually reasonably priced packed together with a rear reflector.
• Reflective tape – A couple bits, placed in the right spots, make a big difference.
• Gloves – Day-glo or reflective gloves help you be seen and help drivers see your hand signals – read more on gloves for visibility at Duncan's City Ride
From the Side
At night, especially during rush hour, many drivers approach intersections and simply scan each direction for headlights – not expecting to see a bicycle. Improving your visibility from the side will help you be seen by all cars in an intersection.
• Wheel reflectors – Made to be seen from the side, the motion of your wheels also helps wheel reflectors get noticed
• Reflective tape – Yes, I know this is the third time I mentioned it – but it works really well all around your bike
• Lights – You must have front and back lights anyway, choose ones that are visible from the side too
Remember, the darkness reduces your reaction times too. You'll need to keep a closer watch for bumps and debris in the road. Quick glances over your shoulder are not as quick, the images in your rearview mirror not as easily identified.
Night riding takes a bit of adjustment, but it's as much fun as riding at any other time of day.
Does anyone else have any tips on being seen at night?

Location: Dinsmore
Humboldt County Sheriff's Detectives are continuing with their investigation.
On 06-11-2013 they completed their search of the property which is a large parcel with numerous structures and trailers on it. Evidence was recovered at the scene indicating firearms were used in the crime. No other victims were located. Several witnesses were located in the area where the crime occurred and have been interviewed. At least two suspects possibly more were involved in the crime. The suspects wore dark clothing and facial covering. Motive is still being determined. The female victim is still in critical, stable condition at an out of area hospital. She is believed to be the victim of a gun shot, however that has not been confirmed by medical professionals. The male victim has been treated and released.
Anyone with information for the Sheriffs Office regarding this case is encouraged to call lead Investigator Detective Cheryl Franco at 268-3644 or the Sheriffs Office Crime Tip line at 707-268-2539.
On 06-11-2013, approximately 1:00 a.m., the Humboldt County Sheriff's Office received a 911 call from a citizen in the 37000 block of Highway 36, Dinsmore. The citizen told the dispatcher that his neighbors had been severely beaten and needed medical help and law enforcement immediately. Humboldt County Sheriff's Deputies and Emergency Medical Services Personnel responded to the scene. Deputies located two victims, a 55 year old male and 27 year old female. The male had been severely beaten and the female appears to have been shot. The male and female were transported to a local hospital for treatment. The female is currently in critical, but stable condition and is being airlifted to a hospital out of the area. The male is in stable condition and is currently in a local hospital. Deputies have secured the residence and property. A Humboldt County Superior Court Search Warrant has been obtained and deputies and detectives are searching the property, attempting to locate and interview witnesses, and determine a motive for this crime.
At this point in the investigation it is believed at least two suspects are involved and are still at large. There are no suspect descriptions at this time. Further information will be released in the future as more information becomes available.
